Message: [QUOTE="BillyR23, post: 7140650, member: 103828"] Like many other community members said, I also think that poker is a sport and mostly people that don't invest time into studying and improving their game and/or people that don't know much about poker and just see that it's played for lots of money, come to the conclusion that it's just gambling... About the luck factor- this is present everywhere in life and especially in all the sports(let's take Man City as an example- they have like 70%+ ball possession, 20 chances to score and sometimes their opponents will have 1 free kick/ corner kick and they'll score and win... losing with AA vs. 72o is nothing compared to this, so Pep Guardiola should just say that football is rigged and it should be taken off the sports category lol... or just a few days ago OKC lost Game 1 at home even tho they controlled the game from the start and Indiana had the lead for less than 1 second from 48 minutes of play- so basketball is definitely not a sport but a rigged gambling activity lol...), so you can't say that poker is gambling just because of some bad experiences and again, like other members said, mostly fish/ bad recreational players only rely on luck, the players that take poker seriously will study a lot to improve their skills and long-term, skillful play will ultimately lead to good results... 3 of my favorite DNegs quotes: - Poker is a skill game pretending to be a chance game. - In the long run, luck is going to even out. - The best players in the World are constantly learning and adapting. They're never satisfied with their current level of play. [/QUOTE]
